Beyond
the day job.

FLUPA, sixteen chapters, four countries.

Governance of a francophone design network at European scale. The job is operating-model work: aligning chapter leads across France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland, designing event formats that travel without losing local character, measuring community performance, keeping the network strategically coherent.

Previously co-led the Brussels chapter (2023–2024), building the recurring formats and the room where francophone designers in Belgium could actually meet each other.

The case study lives on /work/flupa-governance.

TEDxBrussels, the discipline most teams mistake for logistics.

Event Design across three editions, All Inclusive, RESET, Countdown, working at two distinct scales. The salon (under 60 attendees, intimate, conversation-led) and the main event (400+ at Théâtre National, public, choreographed). Audience journey, content sequencing, partnership architecture all shift between formats.

Event design sits between service design, brand, and content production. It's underrated because no one owns it cleanly. And it changes the entire experience when done well.

Technovation, mentoring teenage girls building real things.

Mobile apps designed by middle- and high-school teams, tackling social and environmental problems they care about. Problem framing, user-centered design, prototyping, validation, the full loop, condensed for thirteen-year-olds who pick it up faster than most product teams.

ADPList, how to operate when the org isn't designed around you.

Mentoring designers on the things that don't get taught: stakeholder management, design systems as business infrastructure, data-driven design, DesignOps, how to make decisions when you don't have authority. The strategic, organizational layer most designers learn the hard way.

Beyond the Cover, reading, in public.

An online book club and publication based in Europe, run by Chiara Angori and Gladys Diandoki. I contribute regularly, around two posts a month, reading at the seam where design, behavior, and culture meet, then writing what I find there.

The reading practice is also the intellectual upstream of every case study. Beyond the day job · Beyond the Cover, the name does double duty on purpose.
